Is It Possible To Have A Laptop Act As A Wifi Hotspot?
Posted on August 15, 2009 by admin
I currently do not have a wifi router, but I have 2 laptops. If I plug one laptop into the RJ-45 cable to connect to the internet, is there any way I can use the laptop’s wireless to allow my other laptop to also connect to the internet? Both are running XP. I’ll have my router back in a couple days, I just want to get both computers connected until then.

You’d have to set up internet connection sharing on the one with the wired connection, and then enable the wireless connection as an ad-hoc connection so that the other laptop can see it. A lot of work if you’re only going to be down for a couple of days.
